"Our administration stands in firm solidarity with the Kwara child and children all over the world as our country again commemorates the Children’s Day," the Governor said in a statement by his spokesman Rafiu Ajakaye dated May 27, 2020.
"Our policy is to ensure that no child is left behind or denied every right and privileges to compete with their peers.
"The theme for this year’s Children’s Day is ‘Promoting Girl Child Education for Sustainable Development.’ Apart from the general bias for children and all disadvantaged groups, this administration is committed to the well-being of the girl child. Today, we have given the girl child a bragging right to say that her state, Kwara, holds the ace on the African continent in terms of women inclusion in governance.
"We also had the girl child in mind when we enrolled Kwara State in the national school feeding programme because of its consequences for increased school enrolment, reduction of out-of-school children, poverty reduction, and women empowerment.
